WOw it has been 7 weeks . I don't regret the decision and learning so much about my new stomach. I have am sticking to the plan , I don't eat bread , Pasta , sugar or bad carbs . I eat mostly Protein and try and get in some mixed veggies at dinner . I need to drink more Water , most days it's max 64 oz, but that is really working it ! Calories on average 600-900 a day , Exercising strenuous 30 min 3 x a week , I am a loose size 18 down from size 22 , lost 33 pounds and feel great .

So why do I feel like everyone else seems to be losing weight faster then me ? I thought 20 ponds a month is something I could expect if I stuck with the program ? Maybe I am living in lala land but dang it I want faster results I am curious to know what everyone's current loss is and if it meets their expectations . Thanks guys !

Anyone interested in me setting up a Facebook group of August sleevers? That way we can share recipes , highs and lows in a quicker way then searching on this forum .

I was sleeved August 21st. SW on surgery date 249, CW as of 3 days ago 206. A loss of 43 pounds 8 wks out. Your loss seems great to me. I keep reminding myself that this will keep working as long as I follow the plan. I walk almost daily 2 miles with my 2 year old and dog. The little one keeps me moving now that I can get up and do as he wants . I just added the Slim in 6 beach body video 3 times a wk. Building up to 5 days a wk. I eat between 500 and 800 calories a day, Protein 70-90, carbs 35-45. I was just told Thursday by my NUT to up my carbs on my work out days to 60. I'm a little afraid to do that tho. Your doing great keep working that sleeve.

I need to up my work outs , that will be my weekly goal . Thanks for the push

If your going at your work out hard your probably not having very much muscle loss. (which is great) I say keep up your goals your seem to be doing things right! 33 pounds is huge! Don't forget to switch it up every once in awhile. That's the advice I was given so in 5 wks I'll move on to a new routine. Idk if that's proper but I'm willing to give it a try
